Living Wills, Advance Health Care Directives, Durable Power of Attorney... what do all these terms mean? What are the similarities? The differences? What will work for me?
Whether or not you value Wikipedia as a good source of information is your call. What it will do during our search is give us a consistency to the pages we are looking at, which hopefully will make things a little easier when defining these confusing items. I encourage you to use your own favorite search engine to further explore the myriad of information that is available.
I will also be referencing other sources within this blog. My intention is to give simple, clean references. Also I will provide links to printable forms for your use.
If you haven't searched these terms before I think that you will find it interesting to learn about each one, to find out which one is the one you will need in the future. It will also open up topics for the discussion that I hope you will be having with your family.
We use Wikipedia almost daily. We are always cognizant of the potential validity problems with some of the entries and when appropriate look at the rebuttals, etc. But it's an amazing resource.
